Johannes (Jo) Wardenier was a Dutch self-taught amateur engineer born on September 20, 1912, in Steenwijkerwold. He gained worldwide fame in 1934 for inventing a fuel-less engine, which claimed to approach the concept of perpetual motion. This invention led to a week-long media frenzy, with hopes of economic benefit for the town of Wolvega. However, it was revealed to be a hoax, contributing to a myth about Wardenier and his invention, largely due to his own embellishments as a fantasist and pathological liar.
